Hello relatable listeners. Happy Wednesday. I hope that everyone has had a wonderful week.

0:05.7

Today we are going to talk about Buttigieg, Trump, and evangelicals. That is how you say Pete

0:12.4

Buttigieg's last name because one time randomly a couple of weeks ago, maybe a few weeks ago now,

0:18.2

I was watching a CNN town hall with him and he specifically told the audience how to say his

0:24.6

last name and it is Pete Buttigieg. So if you don't already know who he is, he is a Democratic

0:29.8

presidential candidate. We've talked about him on the podcast before. He is from South Bend,

and the deferred action for childhood arrivals program, aka DACA. The reason why we were talking

1:40.1

about him is because he is a self-proclaimed Christian and he has said that he thinks that

1:47.6

Christians are hypocrites for supporting Donald Trump. And so we're kind of going to get into

1:52.2

the back and forth of that and why I think that he is wrong. I see his perspective, but I think he's

1:58.1

wrong. On MSNBC, this is another thing that he stands for. On MSNBC, he said that he does not
